Through partnerships uncommon in other states but typical for Wyoming, researchers, legislators and industries work together to unearth new technologies. Examples include: • The Hess Corporation has invested $25 million since 2013 in the University of Wyoming School of Energy Resources. The partnership is designed to research the complex rock-fluid interactions that occur in the reservoirs of unconventional plays, increase the amount of oil and gas recovered from shale reservoirs and help meet the world’s future energy needs. Hess is the single largest corporate partner in the university’s history. • Houston, Texas-based Baker Hughes Inc. has invested $1.5 million since 2012 in the School of Energy Resources. The company’s initial $500,000 donation went toward construction of the university’s High Bay Research Facility. Baker Hughes invested $1 million in 2015 to support research on unconventional oil and gas reservoirs in Wyoming. 10 | Think Wyoming Billions in Investments are Underway Several large energy projects are on the horizon in Wyoming including: • The 1,000-turbine Chokecherry and Sierra Madre Wind Energy Project to be located south of Rawlins and Sinclair in south-central Wyoming. It will be the largest wind farm in the U.S. • The TransWest Express transmission line from south of Rawlins to southern Nevada. • The Integrated Test Center at Basin Electric’s Dry Fork Station coal-fired power plant north of Gillette, Wyoming, will provide a lab for carbon-capture research. You Can Make it in Wyoming Manufacturing companies are increasingly finding Wyoming to be the place to set up shop. Wyoming manufacturing employment grew 13.5 percent between December 2009 and March 2014. The statewide average industrial power rate is 6.70 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh) (July 2015). The Mountain West regional average is 7.57 cents/kWh. Manufacturing Sales Tax Exemption The sales tax burden is exempt on the sale or lease of machinery to be used in the state of Wyoming directly and predominantly in manufacturing tangible personal property. Sales Tax Exemption on Electricity Used in Manufacturing The sales tax burden is exempt on sales of power or fuel to a person engaged in the business of manufacturing, processing or agriculture when the same is consumed directly in the manufacturing process. Positive Regulatory Support The state of Wyoming has worked hard to create a strong, efficient and sensible regulatory environment that reflects its commitment to energy and mining. In addition, many Wyoming companies take advantage of the industrial revenue bonds from the state. For more information about industrial revenue bonds, visit our website: wyomingbusiness.org.

  • Fifteenfortyseven Critical Systems Realty and Green House Data Partner to Develop New Datacenter Facility in Cheyenne, WY
    fifteenfortyseven Critical Systems Realty and Green House Data Partner to Develop New Datacenter Facility in Cheyenne, WY Cheyenne, WY and Matawan, NJ - June 5, 2013 – fifteenfortyseven Critical Systems Realty, LLC (1547) and Green House Data announce today their partnership to develop a new state-of-the-art datacenter facility in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The 35,000 sq. ft., five (5) Megawatt, concurrently-maintainable facility is designed to house wholesale, retail and cloud colocation services for high-power density customers. This new facility will join Green House Data’s existing 10,000 sq. ft. facility to form the nucleus of a planned, multi-building datacenter campus. The first phase of this project will kick off immediately and is scheduled to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2014. The facility will boast 100 gigabit per second (Gbps) network capacity with redundancy across four network carriers and low latency to the major datacenter hubs in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Dallas. This initial build will make available an additional 5,000 sq. ft. of configurable and ready-to-lease space. “This new datacenter is ideal for organizations from either coast who need to incorporate safe locations into their disaster recovery and business continuity planning," states Shawn Mills, President, Green House Data. “With this expansion, we will be able to offer the business community across the central regions a secure, efficient, state-of-the-art datacenter that combines a unique climate with strategic access to the key data center hubs in the US.” Formed in 2007, Green House Data has been providing high performance, secure, and reliable cloud hosting and colocation services in the Cheyenne market to customers around the world.

    LIU_LAYOUT.qxp_Layout 1 1/15/14 11:42 AM Page 48 http://www.paper.edu.cn 中国科技论文在线 Harnessing Renewable Energy in Cloud Datacenters: Opportunities and Challenges Wei Deng, Fangming Liu, and Hai Jin, Services Computing Technology and System Lab, Cluster and Grid Computing Lab in the School of Computer Science and Technology, Huazhong Univer- sity of Science and Technology Bo Li, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Dan Li, Tsinghua University Abstract The proliferation of cloud computing has promoted the wide deployment of large- scale datacenters with tremendous power consumption and high carbon emission. To reduce power cost and carbon footprint, an increasing number of cloud service providers have considered green datacenters with renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind. However, unlike the stable supply of grid energy, it is challeng- ing to utilize and realize renewable energy due to the uncertain, intermittent and variable nature. In this article, we provide a taxonomy of the state-of-the-art research in applying renewable energy in cloud computing datacenters from five key aspects, including generation models and prediction methods of renewable energy, capacity planning of green datacenters, intra-datacenter workload schedul- ing and load balancing across geographically distributed datacenters. By explor- ing new research challenges involved in managing the use of renewable energy in datacenters, this article attempts to address why, when, where and how to lever- age renewable energy in datacenters, also with a focus on future research avenues. ransitioning from fossil fuels to the use of renewable To measure how clean is a datacenter, the Green Grid energy sources, such as solar and wind, to power cloud organization proposes a new sustainability metric, carbon computing datacenters is a hot research topic today.
